[explody pup]

I don't think I could narrow it down to 8 bands. Even if I succeeded, it'd be different 5 minutes later.

Currently listening to one of a few albums I just got from the Anticon record label. All very good stuff. Almost all hip-hop.

[georgiaboy]

The Starland Vocal Band
Christopher Cross
Kris Kross
Young MC
Edie Brickell and New Bohemians
John Tesh

Sorry, CyLowe, your "list" is not believable. Unless, have your Ipod set up for sleep inducement. :D :lol:

[ravenmore]

I got 5 minutes if you do Explody. ;)

The 8 limit was important I thought. :)

BDG - I love those guys. Their lyrics are really something else. Plus they're "local" for me here in Austin. They have a song out with Imogen Heap called Congratulations that most folks haven't heard yet. Check it out. It's really good. :)

[explody pup]

I'll just list what I've been listening to most for the last week.

1. Arcade Fire
2. Of Montreal
3. Themselves
4. Bracken
5. Odd Nosdam
6. Trans Am
7. Busdriver
8. Alias

[CyLowe97]

No way! Kriss Kross will make ya JUMP! JUMP!


If you want serious... there's no way to pare it down to 8.

The current avatar is one of my current favorites. Bonus points to the person who can identify the band/album from which it was chopped.
